Common Questions About Fentanyl Exposure and Cleaning in Montclair State University

What should I do if someone may have been exposed?

Call 911 if the person cannot be woken, is breathing slowly or is very drowsy. For other questions, call Poison Control. Get away from the area and wash skin with soap and water. Tell responders what you found and where, so they can act safely.

How long does fentanyl residue stay on surfaces?

Residue can stay until it is cleaned, and no one can tell by looking. That is why a closed area should be left alone until a cleanup team has cleaned it. You can ask the team to explain the methods it uses and how it checks the work.

Why can't I just vacuum or sweep?

Fine powder can rise into the air when it is swept, wiped dry or vacuumed with an ordinary vacuum. Cleanup teams use wet methods and controlled equipment so particles stay down. Agencies such as the CDC advise against disturbing powder.

Can residue be on clothing or belongings?

It can. Clothing, bedding, bags and furniture in an affected space may carry powder. Do not shake them out. A team can advise on what to bag, clean or discard.

Will cleanup remove the smell?

Fentanyl itself usually has little smell, but drug use can leave other odors in fabric and walls. Once contaminated materials are out, a team can treat odor. Ask what methods the team uses and whether that is part of the plan.

What do police and firefighters do about residue?

Responders deal with the emergency, collect evidence and make the scene safe. They do not usually clean the space afterward. Once the property is released, the owner or family books decontamination.

Not sure it is safe to clean it yourself in Montclair State University, NJ?
